I am trying to write the contents of a listbox to a txt i want included inside my projects installation files (so it wont need admin privileges to change it)The code im using at the minute is
Private Sub Form1_FormClosing(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.FormClosingEventArgs) Handles Me.FormClosing
'UPDATE TXT FILE AFTER CLOSING
Dim i As Integer[code].....
However it will not populate the file upon closing the program! I get an error, how would i go about populating it correctly,,,
I am witting an app that will generate batch files to do an unattended installation of a share point 2007 farm. I already have a batch file I use and it's pretty big. I copied and pasted the content into my application, and I'm using the System.IO.StreamWriter to write to the batch file from the winform. [code]As you can probably guess, I'm doing all of this in my mainform code window. There are maybe 3 or 4 batch files that will be generated based on the selections made on the form. For example, I'm generating a batch file to create the OU, Group and service accounts the farm will use in active directory, I'm creating a batch file for all of the variables that will be used for the additional batch files created, etc. How can I split this up? is there a way to create the batch files without having to actually copy, paste my existing batch file content into the mainform code window? I'm using file.writeline on each line of the pasted content by the way.
im trying to write a .reg file out that is written into the exe's my.resources dynamically at compile time from a diffrent app... but the .reg file gets messed up and alot of extra txt gets added ...
I have found that i can add some resources as images and i could use them using my.resources.now i want to know how can i use the same way to save something to a text file in the resources and then load the saved text.
Write a program that requests a color as input in a text box and then determines whether or not the color is in the text file. The program should use the Boolean-valued Function procedure IsCrayola that returns the value True if the color in the text box is a Crayola color.
MSDN only discusses strings, images, audio, etc.. but does not cover text files.
I have a text file with about 6k lines of short strings, each on its own line, added to my project's resources and I'm trying to .add each line to a collection. I've tried about 7 or 8 things, not all using StreamReader, but I can't find documentation on this anywhere.
Here is the last thing I tried:
Dim JunkStrings As New Collection Dim sr As StreamReader = New StreamReader(My.Resources.shorts) Do While sr.Peek() >= 0
[Code].....
I just can't find the equivalent to this that reads lines from a text file out of my.resources.
I'm having a problem where instead of reading a text file from the location string, I changed it to read the text file from the resource location and it breaks my program. I've also used the insert snippet method to get most of this code, so it is safe to say I don't know what is going on. [code]
I'm having some trouble using resource files. In my project I'm using a bunch of bitmap files and two txt files. Bitmaps are used as backgrounds for controls, but .txt files I want to open in Notepad or WordPad. Till now I was accesing them from a file path on my machine: ControlName.backgroundimage = New Bitmap(direcorypath & "/Map.bmp") Process.Start(direcorypath & "/Instrukcje.txt")
And it worked fine. Now I added these files to my resources (it's practical for me to have them in executable file) And replaced those lines with: ControlName.backgroundimage = New Bitmap(MyProject.My.Resources.Map) Process.Start(MyProject.My.Resources.Instrukcje)
For bitmap it works fine, but for txt file an error occurs saying that a file cannot be found. Interestin thing is: when I type "MyProject.My.Resources.Instrukcje" in "Watch" it shows the content of the file. So it is there, only not as a file?
This is my first post in the community. I am putting together a program that serves two functions:1. Takes input from TextBoxes and writes it to a text file.2. Takes the text from the text file and displays two specific strings of text in a MessageBox.This is the code for the button that writes the input to file.
Private Sub facSubmitButton_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles facSubmitButton.Click Dim facultyRecord As String = "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Desktop\teeny.txt"
When using .write method the string will be stored at the end of the text file. Is there a method that adds them on top? If not, how can I get this done without using too much memory and processor time?
I have just recently been using VB 2010 after using VB5. I have noticed a lot of changes. The problem I have is that I wish to open and save text files to and from arrays in the background. I've attached what I would do in VB5. I have searched around, but all the examples I find use a Textbox instead of an array. Can anyone show me how I can do this with VB 2010?
I am creating a text file using a save file dialog and copying the path to the text box which file is used to write from vb.net. when i try to write i get an error "The process cannot access the file '....fileName.txt' because it is being used by other program".
The code is below
Public Sub writeInTextFile() Try Dim oWrite As New StreamWriter(TxtOutputPath.Text)
I am attempting to gather a group of file names from a directory. I am able to do this. I tested the code by having the list populate into a listbox and all desired items were added to the list.
Here is my code: Dim di As New IO.DirectoryInfo(strPath) Dim dir1 As IO.FileInfo() = di.GetFiles("*.txt") Dim dFiles As IO.FileInfo ListBox.Items.Add(dFiles)
However, a listbox is not my desired output. I am attempting to write these file names to a text file for purposes of then parsing the information to a datatable to compare with another datatable. How to get my filenames written to a textfile.
I am writing an application that must generate a plain Text file with fixed sized columns.my current code is:
Dim MyFilePath As String = Path & FILE_PREFIX & FileNr & ".TXT" IO.File.Delete(MyFilePath) Dim FileStr As New IO.StreamWriter(MyFilePath, False, <ENCODER HERE>)
I want to write a line into a text /.cfg file. the line is = name "ishtiak", i need a space between name & "ishtiak". the text "ishtiak" is loading from a textbox called textbox1. i don't want in the text box my name like this "ishtiak" it will be without "" like this ishtiak but in the text file it will add "" before & after my name.
so the question is: 1.how to add space between name & "ishtiak"? like this = name "ishtiak". 2.My textbox text will be ishtiak,but it will be written like this "ishtiak" [Code]
We have some information that we need to write (about 18KB) to a .txt file stored in one of our network drives. The file is re-written about once every 15 minutes but is read practically at least every second. We are currently using StreamWriter to write file.The file server is in remote location and the round trip ping varies from <1ms to 15ms.
The problem is, sometimes it takes as long as 6 seconds to write the contents to the file, which is definitely way too long even after we take consideration of the network speed. therefore, I am just wondering if there is any efficient way to write the file using VB.Net to improve the performance? Java has a very good tool named BufferedOutputStream, which unfortunately is not available in VB.Net (or I just have not found it).
Application log file have been created to monitor the process and following code has been used to write the log information into text file. For the first time there is no error encountered when the application runs for hours, may be 3 hours i am getting following error "An unhandled exception of type 'System.StackOverflowException' occurred in mscorlib.dll" [code]...
I want to write some stats to a text file every time a person loads a page. But every once in awhile I am getting at 'Could Not Open File, Already in use' type of error. I can not 100% replicate this error it is very erratic. My code is
Public Sub WriteStats(ByVal ad_id As Integer) Dim ad_date As String = Now.Year & Now.Month Dim FILENAME As String = Server.MapPath("text/BoxedAds.txt")
[Code]....
how can I lock and unlock the file so I stop getting the erratic errors?
Im working on an assignment for school and i have to write my schedule to a file using input boxes, also i have to use a structured array on the assignment. Both of these i have working fine.I just have one problem, my formatting such like when i write to the file it doesnt look all nice and straight and when i read from the file its uneven also. I know its because the classnames/teachernames are different lengths but i was wondering if anyone could explain to me how to format it to make it look nicer in the text file, and when its displayed on the form in the label

How would a person read a line of a text file by the number of the line. In other words, if I wanted to get the 3rd line of the file, how could I store that third line in a variable. While I'm at it, I might as well also ask how to do the opposite, or write text to a specific line (in this case, writing over the other information on the chosen line).
